It is the character of God which illuminates the darkness of this world. The world is dark through the misapprehension of God’s character. This started with the lie that Satan told to our first parents in the garden, and has grown with time.
In the Bible, names represent character attributes. Likewise, the name of God reveals His character. The articles in this volume unfold the theme of God’s character, especially as revealed through Christ, who is “the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person.” (Hebrews 1:3).
The writings of Waggoner and Jones were only the beginning of the light of the glory of God which is to lighten the world, and therefore, we also recommend the book, Behold Your God, by F. T. Wright, which expounds more fully on this great theme. 113p
